Stopping at your deli counter or in the deli aisle can provide numerous meal possibilities that feature protein as the star. Discover how versatile this easy ingredient is with the meals below, but first some shopping and storing tips.

How to buy and keep deli meats

  • Buy deli meat as close to the time you plan to use it as possible. Think Sunday supermarket shopping, not Friday.

  • Store it in an airtight plastic container or zip-close bag.

  • Eat it within five days (not a problem with these tasty ideas).
